Police Throw Birthday Party for Girls They Found in Abandoned Building

Chicago cops have gone above and beyond the call of duty to ensure a happy ending for three little girls found fending for themselves, throwing them a birthday party after they were safely placed with a relative, authorities said.

Officers with the Chicago Police Department responding to a call of a child left alone found three sisters, ages 7, 2 and 1, on their own in a house on November 13, officials said.

After being evaluated by medical personnel, the Department of Children and Family Services placed the girls with their grandmother, who had recently come on hard times, police said.
